The Philippines is in talks with Indonesia on incorporating the latter’s quality Islamic education in the country’s education system, which seeks to help in addressing and preventing radicalism brought by terrorists.

Welcoming the opportunity, Foreign Affairs Secretary Alan Peter Cayetano cited Indonesia’s excellence in Islam education.

“Indonesia is one of the models for the kind of Islamic education that the Philippines and ASEAN can look into to counter the rise of extremism,” Cayetano said in a statement on Wednesday.

According to him, the Philippines and Indonesia share the same goal in preventing terrorist attacks similar to the Marawi siege.

“Our Indonesian friends do not want to see another Marawi happening and are offering to help us counter radicalization through education,” he said.

The DFA chief said the Philippines has an existing Memorandum of Understanding with Indonesia on Education and is currently discussing with Jakarta on another collaboration on Islam education.
